Some things in life just go great
together like a piano and keys, a dj and turntables, or Kameil Madison
and music. From day one Kameil has always been around music. With her
grandmother being a blues singer and her mother being a huge fan of R&B, Kameil
had no choice but to fall in love with music.
This Michigan native grew up listening to artists such as Stephanie Mills, Keith
Sweat, Anita Baker, Gladys Knight, and many other incredible artists. As a child
she fell in love with the music of Janet Jackson, Brandy, Xscape, Aaliyah, and
many others. Her family definitely knew that this young child was destined for a
career in the music industry.
At the age of 14, she went to a nearby recording studio (House Of Treez), where
she met longtime producer and friend, DX The Flex. Although she started out
singing she felt that she was finally on the right track. She then took a little
time off and began listening to more rap than she usually did. She started
listening to artists such as Lil' Kim, Notorious B.I.G., Missy Elliott, and Foxy
Brown.
Kameil then started mixing rap into her R&B songs until one day it was more rap
and a lot less R&B. She was in love. Rapping was a genre that fit her perfectly.
She has the look, the attitude, and definitely the skills.
Kameil has accomplished a lot at the age of 21. With music that has been
featured on Lifetime network's original movie "Sex and a Single Mom", FX
network's "The Shield", and The Wayans Brother's film "Whitechicks", Kameil is
definitely taking the music industry by storm! Look out for Kameil's debut album
"Unlady-Like" in stores and online!!
